Vault112 Strike. We are done with chasing pointless stars and lining NG pockets.
Hello all forum members and gamer's alike. This is Coooooooooralll (Grimey) The leader of Vault112 #2 Global - Vault112B top 15 Global and Vault112C (Retired players and friends)
My guild has asked me to compose this letter to our forum friends, Moderators and anyone who cares to listen.
We have battled long and hard maintaining our top 10 global rank since pretty much the first few months of the games birth. We are currently in second place globally for the last few months. We consider ourselves the best non pay to win guild in this game.
We as a dedicated group of hardcore player's have decided that enough is enough. Just like beastmodes post, we also compiled the same numbers and drew our own conclusions. The way this challenge setup was changed this time is just to much. Doing 300 stars in 5 days of pointless grindfest low level missions to get to the good stuff is utterly pointless. We can do level 18 deadlies, explores all day long and get more rewards. Not to mention raids to get the measly 8k TG you have left us after nerfing the previous challenge system. As a top team we could easily get 28k TG a piece after the entire week. Taking 70% of our guild rewards away and making us go through so much more pointless grinding levels has killed off what little desire we had left.
This isn't a woe is me cryfest post. We aren't all quitting the game and leaving in a huff and puff. We are as a large group of 60 players deciding it's time to take a stand against these ridiculous expectations of grind. As a solid unit, we have unanimously decided to cease challenge star chasing and personal leaderboard goals. This is a massive sacrifice for some of us that are in the top50 global because NG has setup the leaderboards so only the long time players ever get to access it, as this game has lost the concept of competition and allowing new players to enter the fray and have a chance at success. They have turned the leaderboards into an old boys club, which is just overall bad for business and does not encourage growth.
So we the players of Vault112 are taking a personal stand, no matter what it costs us, or no matter if nobody cares. We will not be treated as idiots any longer and faceless wallets for NG to take advantage of. We know if something changes we can get back to the top 2 in 14 days. We just will not give NG anymore money to chase stars in guild challenges.
We are now all officially semi-retired, we encourage the rest of the community to join us, the other top guilds to take a break as well. The only way we can inspire true change, and fast is if we get together for a common cause.
Feel free to post in here and support us, call us idiots saying we can't make a difference or whatever you want to say. We have all made our final decision. Don't bother scrambling to find our members to have them join your team like all the other teams that disband. We are not disbanding, we will stay as a group and at worst will move to a new game of all of our choosing who will respect our play and our money properly.
Respectfully yours,
Members of Vault112

Do you have anything else you need to discuss in this thread? I would appreciate it if you would leave me alone. I'm asking nicely to please leave me alone.
I think one of forum rules state that.
Check out the DMZ guild. We're recruiting. Here.
TG wise: it's crap. It should be scaled
In the old system I would clear 7 individual rewards and 7 guild rewards per challenge. That's 14k TG per challenge so 28k TG per week. Since that old system covered the 7 days, that's 4k TG a day
I propose the new system be scaled to that. The new system is 5 days so I should be clearing 20k TG in those 5 days. That's the way I see it.
You are a very contradictory person indeed. Asking if I have anything else to add to the thread and for me to leave you alone at the same time would suggest you are somehow the originator of the thread in that my replying to it is being perceived as an attack by you for some reason. You are not under attack, you are simply being disagreed with. So do yourself a favor and calm down (because it is not an attack if that happens). I will say this about this and the other similar thread made about the same thing, if community members are derailing it then the community as a whole are not interested in what you are pedaling. Also the players that frequent this forum equate to less than 10% of the total NML player base so even if we were interested in "striking" with you it really would do very little to impact the game as a whole or inspire NG to make policy changes.
After reading this I came to the conclusion that reasonable people don't create drama in order to cause change.
@JVC_TWD
I agree about the crate pay-outs and how much adjusting them would help.
Good luck Cindy.
And no, lol I'm not brainwashed. Unfortunately I've had my fair share of dealings with the personality disordered. Things can be the opposite of what they seem.
Thanks for the luck, good luck to you too. xx
Anyway, don't take all this too hard, it's just a very emotional topic and the name grimey seems to rip up a lot of old wounds.

In the future Cindy may I suggest you override him and tell him to let you speak because you are much better at doing it than him.
The day l start to take it to seriously, or the day l start to get offended on the forum is the day l need to quit
Life is way to short to let a game make you mad
. It really made me laugh reading some of the reactions to the post.
Whats with the retarded ad hominem attacks from certain people ? How about sticking to the points being made rather than derail the post by turning it into a stupid playground taunting exercise?
As the #2 guild our contribution has weight even if you don't like our leader. Collectively we've decided to play a different way, this post should be about debating the reasons why we've done that. If you don't want to have a conversation about that then great, but if you do then stick to the subject or you're in danger of being accused of poisoning the well and looking very stupid indeed.

I dunno about that mate, seeing some pretty angry folk about, then again that is why l stated personal opinion
